agnes faris as well, so as soon as i speak i will take the chair so you may say a few words about her as well. i would like to say some words about a great american, a wonderful new yorker, a

speaker, i yield myself one minute to say to my rules committee colleague that time and time agn he criticizes the tax cuts that have been put into place. they really are the bush-obama tax cuts because we all know last december president obama signed an extension of those. i think it's important for us to look at the 2003 revenue flow and rook at what happened just a few short years later in 2007. in 2003, mr. speaker, we had $1,562,000,000,000 in -- excuse me $1,782,000,000,000 in revenues to the federal treasury. in 2007 after those tax cuts were put into place we had $2, 567,000,000,000 in revenues. that was a $587 billion increase, a 44% increase in the take that the federal government had because of the implementation of those cuts. it's important to recognize that if we can grow the economy we can generate an increase in the flows of revenue to the federal treasury. i'm proud to yield a minute and a half to the gentleman from ohio, mr. latourette. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman is recognized for 1 1/2 minutes. mr. latourette: thank you, mr. speaker. i thank you for the recogniti

agnes in '72 stopped in corning, new york, and it rained for days and flooded everything.will not be like that. it will be quickly across maybe even north of montreal 24 hours after it hits the coast. >> we're going to go to ocracoke island. he owns the ocracoke harbor inn. are you with us? >> yes. >> how are citying, is that correct? >> that is correct. >> why? >> i've been here 38 years. and i left one time for gloria. and it was a miserable experience. i actually did not feel as safe when i left. you know, you live here, small island. you know how the buildings are built. you know where everything is at. just feel safer. >> chad, i want to bring you in here. we're looking at a web camera from the harbor in there in ocracoke. certainly a beautiful scene. byron, we sure hope that's the scene when this thing passes. but you came back from gloria. was there a tremendous amount of damage -- one thing ocracoke has been through many, many times is hurricanes. >> yes. since i've lived here we haven't had a lot of structural damage. some roof damage from hurricanes. some floodin

agnes in 1972 known for the flood. the barometric pressure of this storm was very, very low.t energy had to be dissipated somewhere. on the western side in the form of rain, the eastern side, what do you think, the wind was blowing 10 miles an hour to cause all that tree damage and all the power outage? it's all fun and games unless it's your power knocked out and your basement flooding. >> bill: i agree with you. i think we did a responsible job. >> yeah, i don't understand it. >> bill: you know how people are. >> no, but what's going on here is this. it's surreal to me. the left side of the aisle wants the global warming. to counter them, they want to dehype storms. can't we just judge something against actual history? $10 to $15 billion with the storm will put it at fifth or sixth and the loss of life regrettable as it is could have been higher. >> bill: there's another coast brewing off the coast of africa. >> i expect it to threaten. all i'm trying to say is connie and diane 1955 back to back. carol and edna, 1954 back to back. dennis and floyd 1999. it will not be globa
